We loved the tour. Our guide was Agnes -super nice guide which always had a smile on her face and she explained us a lot about Iceland. She was simply lovely. The tour was very well organized and we could see a lot of beautiful places and spots. Would highly recommend!

I had an amazing time! I have no complaints, we saw amazing views, learned about fascinating history and folklore, and had delicious food. I would definitely recommend this tour. And even though it was a full day tour, being able to take a brake on the bus in between stops makes a world of difference! Anastasia was a great tour guide!

I highly recommend taking this tour BEFORE you attempt to see the Northern Lights. They do a great job of explaining the phenonium and, more importantly, how to use your camera to capture the moment. Put this tour at the beginning of your trip. You will not be disappointed!

Even if you see the Northern Lights in the wild, you should still book a tour of Aurora Reykjavik. Not only will you learn a ton about the science and lore behind the Lights, you will get to see spectacular displays from all over Iceland on their huge movie screen. This was why I wanted to go, and it did NOT disappoint. Worth the price of admission by itself. But then, it was followed by a 5 minute 360 degree virtual reality presentation of even more Lights displays. So glad I went. Even though I saw the Lights in the wild, I did not feel like I'd really seen them until I went here. Loved it!

A very informative visit, excellent graphics, we had some knowledge of the lights but this explained it in great detail, thankyou. Well worth a visit and great coffee and cakes, very friendly staff, with a wide range of aurora gifts. Wonderfully colourful and an awesome theatre show, so peaceful we could have fallen to sleep. A must do attraction !!

Interesting factual guide to the aurora. It’s a little way out down by the harbour, but well worth a visit - easily walkable from the town centre. The best part was the virtual reality headset !

My son saw this museum on a YouTube short, I believe, and wanted to put a pin on the map. We enjoyed the science explanations and the beautiful photography. We regretted not buying a 66 North arctic hat which was a little cheaper than the actual store. Also, the young lady at the reception was super helpful.

I bought tickets for a night excursion to see the Northern Lights on Jan 1st 2025 from Reykjavík Excursions. I specifically bought from this company because it included free entry to Aurora Reykjavik on the day of the excursion. The Aurora forecast wasn’t very good, so I didn’t expect to get a good display and thought, at least I’ll learn something at the center. This was a great decision, the display isn’t very expansive, but it is very well laid out, the staff are friendly and helpful and the display was both informative and very well presented. We spent about 90 minutes there and it felt just about right. As a side note, the forecast changed significantly during the evening and we were treated to a spectacular display and this was made even more enjoyable by the fact that we had more knowledge on the subject and realized the significance of the rarity of the red aurora that we witnessed. I’d certainly recommend Aurora Reykjavík especially as a prelude to an excursion!

Un posto estremamente informativo da visitare prima del mio tour dell'aurora boreale. Davvero una buona anteprima. E la persona responsabile al momento della mia visita, Shannon, è stata estremamente amichevole e disponibile. Mi sono divertito molto nel complesso! Grazie Aurora Reykjavik!!
by Kathy F
Mostra molto informativa sull'aurora boreale e su come si forma. Fantastico video dell'aurora su molte delle destinazioni turistiche islandesi. L'addetta alla reception è stata assolutamente fantasitica... ci ha preparato un caffè, ha spiegato e risposto a tutte le nostre domande e poi ha persino chiamato e organizzato un taxi per noi 8!!
